I mean theres a chance they hadnt seen the finished product before. A lot of actors dont want to go watch themselves in a 10+ hour long season when they just spent years making it
"We aaarree not heroes." Same thing happened with Alexi. As soon as the words "When I'm an American Citizen" came out of his mouth I knew that giant russian man was going to find him. Same thing with Hopper at the end of season 3. And Max this season. As soon as characters make plans for the future, they're as good as dead.
@@bradymcconnell Billy was a bully and an abusive brother. He treated Max like garbage pretty much their whole lives. He brought the mind flayer the majority of its victims and caused a lot of deaths. Billy beat and nearly killed the entire group, including El. Billy is known throughout the town as a hero for dying in the "fire" trying to save the kids. Eddie was a kind man being terrorized by the town. He was completely innocent in regards to the murders, but takes all the blame. He loved his friends and died a hero saving all of their lives. Eddie is known throughout the town as a satan-worshipping, satan-possessed serial murderer and as responsible for the town being almost completely destroyed.
Game of Thrones....the episode where Arya comes back to Winterfell after Battle of the Bastards.....he's one of the guards who confronts Arya trying to get in to see Sansa lol
@@GhostGurl670 El, Billy, Vecna, Eddie, Johnathan, all of them are not American there may be others I'm forgetting but oh yes, many of the cast members had to learn how to sound American for this role and absolutely killed it. 💯
"It makes me like metal" damn right it does, Eddie is a character that makes modern day audiences not judge the metal head they see walking down the street because after seeing him in Stranger Things people realise there's a person under it all who isn't intimidating and has a lot more to give if you just strike up a conversation with them 🤟
Yeah, my brother’s in a metal band. I did some vocals with them once and was TERRIFIED, but it turns out I had no reason to be. They were all pretty cool. (Small plug: they’re called Exemptus and they’re pretty damn good, if I do say so myself).
This why stranger things is so good, not only because of the cast, it's because of how they play their character, that's how we get attached to new characters like Eddie, or Alexei, or Bob, the death scene for Eddie was so touching because of Gaten matarazzo and Josephs Quinn's incredible acting skills
I agree... In my opinion, I think they should have killed off Max, and had Eddie survive. Not because I don't like Max but because it was too obvious she was going to survive, it would have been a hell of a lot more of a surprise.
Eddie was a great addition to the cast. Theatrical and funny as the Dungeon Master, but then throughout the season, his arc showed us a young man with heart and with the desire to do the right thing. I was hoping we could all have one more season with him.
it was really engaging watching the unfolding of his character, and also see the group dynamics. steve/eddie/dusty was a really interesting interaction too.
In one of the replies of the comment here, there is a theory saying there was a human who got turned into a vampire after being bit by bats and according to the DnD storyline he was the right hand man of Vecna. But he later betrayed him and killed Vecna. So maybe maybe (✷‿✷)
Eddie’s character was based off of Damien Echols, who was a part of the west Memphis 3. An outsider, accused of a crime he didn’t commit because of his taste in music & interests. This song choice is also fitting because Metallica let them use their music in a documentary about the west Memphis 3 called paradise lost. The history and thought put into Eddie makes me appreciate and love the character so much more.
Imagine using the song about heroine and cocaine abuse (master of puppets), instead of the very next song that is on the same album and LITERALLY about Lovecraftian horrors (The Thing That Should Not Be).
@@Thickcurves master of puppets is so much better for a tv show though. Starts strong, ends strong. I’m sure they weren’t wanting Eddie to choose a song based on the lyrics.. more something as loud and distracting as possible to attract the bats
Even though Eddie was a new character that has a short lived part in the show. He left an impact on the show that is nothing less than amazing. From the arc written, casting, actor's talent and skill, to the execution by the Duffer Brothers. An absolute homerun. Hellfire Club for life.
What blows my mind is how amazingly he not just played the series role but he WAS the heavy metal D&D friends that I hung out with. I knew Eddie Munsons in my teenage years. I played guitar with them, smoked some good stuff with them and played a lot of D&D. He captured the spirit of THAT person perfectly. I don’t think anyone on the show was quite as authentically 80’s as he was. I cried like a wee babe when he died.
I was a teenage metal head. Now, I'm an old metal head, mom, and wife. Eddie's character spoke to me as one outsider to another outsider. I had a buddy, he was Eddie to a T. Now I thrash out with my adult kids. It is yet another side of me they got to see because of this show. Thanks Duffer Brothers, for your love of the outsiders.
Same i loved seeing Eddie he reminded me of a guy i was friend's with in high school who has sadly died a few years back but i know he'd of loved this too!
Same here, metalhead growing up in the Stranger Things time period. One of the best things about this show, for me, is how well they portrayed every aspect of the 80's. I have known a lot of Eddies...and was one too :) Keep on thrashing!
i was FLOORED when i heard metallica start up, and from imho one of the best albums of all time. i think i yelled out YEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!! in my living room. (followed by "how are we hearing drums tho? lol" but i know the song needed heard in its entirety). SO glad to see metal and thrash get representation. they WERE part of the 80s. so i totally agree with you wholeheartedly!
I related so hard to this!! I was and honestly still am the eddie munson of my family. I'm pretty sure everyone thought I would grow out of it but here I am married with 2 kids still the same awkward nerdy metalhead lol. my go to lullaby while soothing my kids was enter sandman 😂
@@caketropolis Enter Sandman is one of my high school band's pep band songs, and its such a fun song for the trombones (I am a trombone), and actually just the whole low brass / low reeds & percussion section (drum set)
2:55 he was probably smiling because he just got the idea too take the guitar and walk off like nothing happened also I love how maya starts smiling as soon as she sees him get up because she already knows he is doing something and she has done this before with joe in interviews they play with each other like sibling’s
Eddie was a fantastically written character, wonderfully acted and portrayed. It would have been so easy to portray him over the top as so many ( Sean Penn ) have in film and TV. Eddie had heart. He had feelings and thoughts.
Eddie absolutely CARRIED this entire season. Every scene he was in, Jo just rocked the hell outta it. I knew the entire time, he was going to get the Barb/Bob/Billie treatment. But it still hurt! I lost a best friend! Rock on Ed, you goddamn star
@@crazyalarmstudios2012 I agree. It's been literally said in interviews that Barbs death was just to SHOCK the audience, and both her and Bob were written to just be killed off. Billy was the most well rounded, because his death was a choice he made. Barb was kidnapped by the demagorgan, and Bob was surprised attacked by Demadogs he would have 100 percent heard coming
@@crazyalarmstudios2012 i understand barb and bob but billie's death wasn't sudden or lazy lol, it set up max's character arc and vecna's appearance. not only that but it wasn't sudden at all, he started in season 2 and ended at the end of season 3, a good amount of time
They may bring him back because the fans liked him so much. Hear me out, Eddie was armed with a shield with spikes on it to shield him from the bats. Now in DND there's a vampire who is known for coming back to life that also has a shield with spikes on it (very similar to what Eddie had). We often see that DND foreshadows what's going to happen, so the fact he uses the same shield as someone who returns from the dead is interesting and could single to his return. Not only that, but the guy who comes back to life in DND is a vampire, Eddie was killed by bats, everyone knows the legend says if you're killed by a bat then you come back as a vampire. Eddie can also be seen with bat tattoos on his arms that could also have the same meaning. Is Eddie the DND character that comes back to life? Is the shield just a coincidence? Is the fact that the character is from DND help single it's foreshadowing? Idk. But it wouldn't be the first time they brought back a fan favorite character. Look at Hopper.
wow being Hopper fan is pretty rare because everybody like kids😂 But I personally like the BaldEagle Murray as well, dude helped them so many times and he’s funny
@@genieinawinebottle yeah Lucas doesn't really get too annoying either. Mike and Will both felt useless this season. One cries the whole time while the other is just someones boyfriend
That scene will live on as one of the sickest scenes of all time. And as heartbroken as I am that we won’t get more Eddie, I’m so glad that he got such an epic send off. I’m so impressed by his performance. He deserves all the success and opportunities he receives after this ❤️
that's my theory too. pretty dure they didnt take his body out of the upside down so who knows, maybe vecna somehow revives him or eddie only passed out and woke up again? and then he can betray vecna and get back to the real world
I mean we saw Billy a few times this season. I wouldn't mind seeing him come back as sort of a "force ghost" for Dustin. Not like literally but in Dustin's mind giving him encouragement and we can see him too.
The entire scene on top of a cladded trailer, with red lightening, a hoarde of man eating monster bats coming, while someone is being chased by a killer monster man looks, feels, and plays out exactly as an 80s metal video would. It's on par with something like Á Tout Le Monde or anything else Megadeth and Slayer produced for their music videos. Whoever it was that thought of this scene and how it played out was dedicated to the spirit of 80s metal
Stranger things truly is such a great show and honestly I don’t think the Duffer Brothers could have picked a better cast, they play their characters so well, like they were literally born to play those roles, even the roles that are really hard to play the actors do such an amazing job. I love this show so much and it’s made me laugh, cry, and overall so happy, and I can’t wait for the next season
I love the cast. You can tell they genuinely have a good time. And even tho Eddie was new, I wasn't ready to lose him THIS soon wtf. I wanted to see more of that group man... Eddie/Steve/Robin/Nancy. 💔 But he's right, it was a cool way to go out. lol
At the time of Eddie’s triumphant heavy metal concert scene, I didn’t see it coming that he was gonna die for Hawkins. Now that I look back at he whole season, especially he kept on saying things like, “This is my year”, it makes sense that it was a foreshadowing that he will die. RIP to Hawkins resident HFC and heavy metal king, and the most hated hometown hero, Eddie 😭🙏. As for Mr. Quinn, bravo to you good sir 👏👏👏🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🤘🤘🤘✌️
@@neech1311 no he won’t, he’s dead and the duffer brothers said they would be hard on not bringing any characters back from season 4. He’s actor might come back for some flashbacks, sure! But the character is dead and he ain’t coming back. Sorry not sorry it’s the hard truth
Joseph Quinn -- this was the first time I have seen any of his work, but he is is hands-down one of the best young(er) actors I have the pleasure of watching in recent years. Hope to see more of you, sir!
it's cool the fact that they watched this scene for the first time together. Many are confused cause they say "but they recorded it so they know this scene", yeah but the scene wasn't edited and put together 😂, it's the first time for them too watching this masterpiece.
That really was "THE MOST METAL EVER"!! Epic scene. And you single handily introduced an entire generation to one of the most metal bands of all time. And probably made them a butt load more money in the process. Rock on bro.. 🤘
black sabbath would also have been fire, at first i was disappointed but in the end i realized for this scene there is no better song than master of puppets
@@xanderced I don't think Sabbath would have fitted, simply because they are from the previous era than the setting. Metallca was the epitome of the average metalhead's playlist in the 80's era. Maybe if Stranger Things was set in the 70's, it would have been spot on.
@@xanderced The show has made a point of using period-appropriate music, and Master of Puppets was released about a month before this season was supposed to take place, every metalhead in America was listening to it that spring.
Rock n roll. Between Master of Puppets and Running Up That Hill and everything in between the music was stupendous this season. Props to the Music Supervisor Nora Felder and her team!
Season 5 will primarily take place in Hawkins In an interview with Collider, the Duffer Brothers confirmed that Season 5 will mostly take place in Hawkins, Indiana, where it all started. At the end of Season 4, most of the crew who diverged out of the small town made it back in some capacity, except for Dr. Martin Brenner, who died out in the New Mexico desert at the hands of Colonel Sullivan’s men. And with the Upside Down encroaching on Hawkins in a big way, it sure seems like a major battle is in store.
I mean Brenner got mauled by an entity from another dimension but that didn't stop him from coming back before Nah I'm just kidding, glad he's dead if im being hoenst
I'm betting on season 5 being very similar to "the mist" a Stephen King flick where another dimension bursts through a "window" that scientists at a top secret military base had created. The resulting leak let in a bunch of vicious creatures into our world, primarily a small coastal town. The survivors all held up in various stores for safety, with things quickly devolving into some lord of the flies shit.
My graduation year would have been 85, I was a metal head then (still am) I related to Eddie’s character and thought to myself we would have been best friends back in the day
I love that Felicia got to do this interview. And that scene just had such goosebumps breaking out all over me. I am a country chick, but also a nerd and a metal head!
Eddie would’ve made a great addition to the babysitters club with Steve 😢 his character could’ve had all these great interactions with the other characters. He could’ve played DND with will. Been a better big brother to Little miss ginger snaps. Teach mike to stand up for himself. Probably could’ve shown Eleven how to shred on the guitar with her mind 😭
the show is never going to be the same without him, i’ll miss him so much and eddie munson is going to be forever in my heart, i never thought i could fall in love with a character this easily, but when eddie came to stranger things i fell in love the second he joined, i know he won’t be back in season 5 but i really hope they duffer brothers change their minds, he was one of the best actors i have ever seen. goodbye eddie, we’ll miss you💔
Actor of Eddie Munsons face when he knew he was the main focus of all iconic scene in Netflix. He knew right then and there. You can see it. He has no words.
1:08 I had the same reaction as Maya's when I saw the scene. Keep the guitar Joseph. You earned it! I like to think that Eddie also pays homage to Cliff Burton.
He is so different, (read: _subdued_) in comparison to the part he plays. That's some great acting! You'd never guess Eddie was actually a very quiet, very polite, somewhat softspoken British guy! It's definitely heartbreaking (to all of us, including the actor) that Eddie won't be coming back. Great character, well-acted, and what an arc! I don't think I'm alone in this: if the Duffers actually DID want to bring him back, then insisting the character is dead, (and maybe even lying/withholding that information from Joseph) would be an amazing, "GOTCHA!" moment that I think the audience would totally be down for!
I studied acting and directing in college in America. A couple of my professors had produced a musical in London and worked with a bunch of British actors. One said it drives him crazy how Americans act now when they get cast in a show because they freak out, jump around, and act like pubescent teenagers. He said when a British actor gets cast they say something like, Ah, great then, cheerio, what is the call time in the morning? Then they go on about their day.
@MᴀᴅMᴀx ᴛʜᴇ Dᴇᴍᴏᴅᴏɢ it is a good theory since he also has a bunch of bats tattooed on his arm from what people have pointed out and the fact that vecna and its lord are still out there. Idk about you guys but I don't see season 5 being able to finish this story without having to leave a lot of questions unanswered
If S5 is set one year after S4... that would be 1987. 1987 is when Joel Schumacher brought us "The Lost Boys" the first ever movie featuring sexy vampires. A movie that featured a group of teens fighting vampires... in a town terrorized by vampires. That had an ending where the half turned vampire teen and his friends destroy the head vampire. Its a bit on the nose reference... but I have to believe the Duffers where probably huge fans and have been planning a big Lost Boys ending for their show.
Me and the wife were watching this and I saw him grab a guitar assuming he was just going to pretend he was playing it but to hear a live rendition of it actually made me smile a bit. Not many people play instruments I have been playing for 16 years and to see a fellow player on a show ripping it up just made me happy that metal and guitar playing isnt a dead art I very rarely run into a fellow player and even fewer willing to put the time into learning something as complex as this song. I heavily struggle to down pick that fast and watching dude rip it up to millions of people made me smile.
Not gonna lie, I was hooked on Eddie's character cause he reminded me of my older brother (DnD fanatic, metal headed, anime watching, gym bro) and it was such a joy to watch it with my brother and his family too! Just hearing his 10 year old son ask him "What song is that dad?" And "Who is Iron Maiden?" And just watch him swell up in nostalgia and tell him about it is exactly why I love Stranger Things!
Bro... The part right after he finished playing, with him and Dustin unable to believe how metal it was, and jumping like little kids... It made me tear up, gosh I'll miss him sooo much
Loved his character this season. Crazy to hear him and see him in real life and the complete difference to what he portrayed in the show. Dude is a gifted actor. RIP Eddie
They can bring back Eddie. He died in the upside down, so there's gotta be a way to bring him back. All it takes is an uproar from the fans and the duffer brother will lift up their magical pencil and write a story.
@@chaseknight6450 Well in DND if you get killed by a bat, you come back as a vampire. Not only that, but the vampire who kills Vecna in the DND storyline had a shield with spikes, like Eddie did. Coincidence? I think not!

@@Airstrike_snoozed_them this would unironically ruin Eddy's character & make the show overall worse. There's nothing less satisfying in a story than undoing certain death, doubly so when it's the best conclusion to a character's story arc & development. Eddy ran away from everything his whole life & after finding something worth dying for, he finally stands up and fights. His death wasn't a defeat, it was his victory that will be cemented in his legacy until the end of time. Bringing him back from the dead would cheapen his final act and would only ruin any kind of tension in the show-- why worry if a main character dies if they can just be magically brought back on a whim? I love Eddy as much as anybody else, but bringing him back is the actual worst thing that could happen. Let him have his moment in the story & enjoy the time you spent watching him grow.
Huge thank you to the creators and cast and everyone who played a part in making this show what it is. Stranger things is truly such a great break for me and helps when my mental health is crappy yk everyone has those times. But I love y’all!! the cast fav humans to walk the earth !!

This why stranger things is so good, not only because of the cast, it's because of how they play their character, that's how we get attached to new characters like Eddie, or Alexei, or Bob, the death scene for Eddie was so touching because of Gaten matarazzo and Josephs Quinn's incredible acting skills
And Barb, never forget Barb :S

I agree... In my opinion, I think they should have killed off Max, and had Eddie survive. Not because I don't like Max but because it was too obvious she was going to survive, it would have been a hell of a lot more of a surprise.

Good job taking that guitar at the end Joseph. You deserve it after your amazing performance throughout season 4. 🎸🎸🎸

Why is nobody talking about the end I just died of laugher when he took the guitar 😂😂
I thought he was going to jam on it right there!
I hope he really did take it and no one gave him any grief about it
Metallica gave him one before their concert at Lollapalooza. Check metallicas youtube.
because its scripted and boring
@@AaronLevyDrums yup exactly he living anyone dreammms
Eddie was a great addition to the cast. Theatrical and funny as the Dungeon Master, but then throughout the season, his arc showed us a young man with heart and with the desire to do the right thing. I was hoping we could all have one more season with him.
it was really engaging watching the unfolding of his character, and also see the group dynamics. steve/eddie/dusty was a really interesting interaction too.
In one of the replies of the comment here, there is a theory saying there was a human who got turned into a vampire after being bit by bats and according to the DnD storyline he was the right hand man of Vecna. But he later betrayed him and killed Vecna. So maybe maybe (✷‿✷)
Think of him coming back as vision of him for dustin
If we had even one more episode with him, the end wouldve broken our hearts even worse.
me too
Eddie’s character was based off of Damien Echols, who was a part of the west Memphis 3. An outsider, accused of a crime he didn’t commit because of his taste in music & interests. This song choice is also fitting because Metallica let them use their music in a documentary about the west Memphis 3 called paradise lost. The history and thought put into Eddie makes me appreciate and love the character so much more.
Imagine using the song about heroine and cocaine abuse (master of puppets), instead of the very next song that is on the same album and LITERALLY about Lovecraftian horrors (The Thing That Should Not Be).
@@Thickcurves had to do with the “Hive Mind” aspect and how Vecna controls everything, like the puppet master.
I mean, his plan did work after all
@@Thickcurves master of puppets is so much better for a tv show though. Starts strong, ends strong. I’m sure they weren’t wanting Eddie to choose a song based on the lyrics.. more something as loud and distracting as possible to attract the bats
@@Thickcurves also Eddie is the Puppet Master when they play DND so it is fitting
@@Thickcurves you could also see "Master of Puppets" as a reference to Vecna, who we've just found out has been behind all of this.
maya being absolutely jaw dropped by this is me
Joseph Quinn did a fantastic job as Eddie just insane how he made us love Eddie and became a fan favorite so fast.
Yes, I find some fb groups are built 🤟🏻
I've never seen a character in a show become more popular with the fans in less than 1 season than Eddie, Quinn killed that role.
Even though Eddie was a new character that has a short lived part in the show. He left an impact on the show that is nothing less than amazing. From the arc written, casting, actor's talent and skill, to the execution by the Duffer Brothers. An absolute homerun. Hellfire Club for life.

@@VULA ratio
What blows my mind is how amazingly he not just played the series role but he WAS the heavy metal D&D friends that I hung out with. I knew Eddie Munsons in my teenage years. I played guitar with them, smoked some good stuff with them and played a lot of D&D. He captured the spirit of THAT person perfectly. I don’t think anyone on the show was quite as authentically 80’s as he was. I cried like a wee babe when he died.
I was a teenage metal head. Now, I'm an old metal head, mom, and wife. Eddie's character spoke to me as one outsider to another outsider. I had a buddy, he was Eddie to a T. Now I thrash out with my adult kids. It is yet another side of me they got to see because of this show. Thanks Duffer Brothers, for your love of the outsiders.
Same i loved seeing Eddie he reminded me of a guy i was friend's with in high school who has sadly died a few years back but i know he'd of loved this too!
Same here, metalhead growing up in the Stranger Things time period. One of the best things about this show, for me, is how well they portrayed every aspect of the 80's. I have known a lot of Eddies...and was one too :) Keep on thrashing!
i was FLOORED when i heard metallica start up, and from imho one of the best albums of all time. i think i yelled out YEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!! in my living room. (followed by "how are we hearing drums tho? lol" but i know the song needed heard in its entirety). SO glad to see metal and thrash get representation. they WERE part of the 80s. so i totally agree with you wholeheartedly!
I related so hard to this!! I was and honestly still am the eddie munson of my family. I'm pretty sure everyone thought I would grow out of it but here I am married with 2 kids still the same awkward nerdy metalhead lol. my go to lullaby while soothing my kids was enter sandman 😂
@@caketropolis Enter Sandman is one of my high school band's pep band songs, and its such a fun song for the trombones (I am a trombone), and actually just the whole low brass / low reeds & percussion section (drum set)
2:55 he was probably smiling because he just got the idea too take the guitar and walk off like nothing happened also I love how maya starts smiling as soon as she sees him get up because she already knows he is doing something and she has done this before with joe in interviews they play with each other like sibling’s

It's always cool to see the cast reaction after they release the final editing for everyone to see
Eddie was a fantastically written character, wonderfully acted and portrayed. It would have been so easy to portray him over the top as so many ( Sean Penn ) have in film and TV. Eddie had heart. He had feelings and thoughts.
Eddie absolutely CARRIED this entire season. Every scene he was in, Jo just rocked the hell outta it. I knew the entire time, he was going to get the Barb/Bob/Billie treatment. But it still hurt! I lost a best friend! Rock on Ed, you goddamn star
Billy sucked
@@crazyalarmstudios2012 I agree. It's been literally said in interviews that Barbs death was just to SHOCK the audience, and both her and Bob were written to just be killed off. Billy was the most well rounded, because his death was a choice he made. Barb was kidnapped by the demagorgan, and Bob was surprised attacked by Demadogs he would have 100 percent heard coming
@@crazyalarmstudios2012 i understand barb and bob but billie's death wasn't sudden or lazy lol, it set up max's character arc and vecna's appearance. not only that but it wasn't sudden at all, he started in season 2 and ended at the end of season 3, a good amount of time
@@crazyalarmstudios2012 To be honest i think this is the worst one
@@crazyalarmstudios2012 You make go and sacrifice for nothing and then you make a tragic scene
8+ months later and Eddie's scene is still THEE greatest scene in Stranger Things, if not of all time in a series
I absolutely agree. I loved the entire season obviously but Eddie made that season for me.
Dude seeing Dustin just vibing appreciating Eddie shredding that thing makes the scene of Eddie dying in front of him that much harder.
They may bring him back because the fans liked him so much. Hear me out, Eddie was armed with a shield with spikes on it to shield him from the bats. Now in DND there's a vampire who is known for coming back to life that also has a shield with spikes on it (very similar to what Eddie had). We often see that DND foreshadows what's going to happen, so the fact he uses the same shield as someone who returns from the dead is interesting and could single to his return. Not only that, but the guy who comes back to life in DND is a vampire, Eddie was killed by bats, everyone knows the legend says if you're killed by a bat then you come back as a vampire. Eddie can also be seen with bat tattoos on his arms that could also have the same meaning. Is Eddie the DND character that comes back to life? Is the shield just a coincidence? Is the fact that the character is from DND help single it's foreshadowing? Idk. But it wouldn't be the first time they brought back a fan favorite character. Look at Hopper.
IIRC that vampire was also vecnas right hand man though
@@gutts00fish55 and also ultimately betrays him and kills him perchance?
@@XeroTrinity oh, now thats spicy
Eddie is also the name of Iron Maiden's zombie mascot....so maybe there is something here.

I love it how Eddie has only been in one season and he became my 3rd favorite character in the series behind Steve and Hopper

@@erwinsmith3198 Wha? My fiance and I's favorite character is Hopper as well. Pretty big among the older crowd too.

The show has excelent characters. Hopper, Steve, "Enzo", Murray, even Yuri was a nice character xD
That scene will live on as one of the sickest scenes of all time. And as heartbroken as I am that we won’t get more Eddie, I’m so glad that he got such an epic send off. I’m so impressed by his performance. He deserves all the success and opportunities he receives after this ❤️
1:24 he has to shade his eyes from the overwhelming awesomeness
Love Joe. Perfect casting. No one could of pulled off Eddie better than him. I hope we'll see him somehow, someway in Season 5. Maybe like Kas?
that's my theory too. pretty dure they didnt take his body out of the upside down so who knows, maybe vecna somehow revives him or eddie only passed out and woke up again? and then he can betray vecna and get back to the real world
I mean we saw Billy a few times this season. I wouldn't mind seeing him come back as sort of a "force ghost" for Dustin. Not like literally but in Dustin's mind giving him encouragement and we can see him too.
Yeah Joe keery. He really pulled of Steve, best character ever

He literally performed the best scene of the season.
I might actually say of the whole series.
max at the end of Dear Billy, like the moment her earth body elevates, that is in SERIOUS conention
Hopper beheading the demigorgon with the music ramping up.
even i never in any tv show such scene that fit
Nah guys, the cherry slurpee scene
Easily the best scene
The entire scene on top of a cladded trailer, with red lightening, a hoarde of man eating monster bats coming, while someone is being chased by a killer monster man looks, feels, and plays out exactly as an 80s metal video would. It's on par with something like Á Tout Le Monde or anything else Megadeth and Slayer produced for their music videos. Whoever it was that thought of this scene and how it played out was dedicated to the spirit of 80s metal
That scene alone is worthy of a Metal Cover look a like (There's many of the 80's Metal Covers that has that same atmosphere)
Eddie is literally the coolest person to me in this show im gonna miss him so much…
he’s not but you do you
Lmao💀
Double that
@P-boy yeah same
I have a feeling we will see him haunting Dustin next season. Not ideal Eddie though sadly!
Stranger things truly is such a great show and honestly I don’t think the Duffer Brothers could have picked a better cast, they play their characters so well, like they were literally born to play those roles, even the roles that are really hard to play the actors do such an amazing job.

At the time of Eddie’s triumphant heavy metal concert scene, I didn’t see it coming that he was gonna die for Hawkins. Now that I look back at he whole season, especially he kept on saying things like, “This is my year”, it makes sense that it was a foreshadowing that he will die.

Normally I’m against bringing characters back to life but I’ll make an exception for Eddie. He was too good!
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS... IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL. !!!
Why is nobody talking about how joe and maya were so calm and chill when he took the guitar 😭
Because it was a scripted joke
That really was "THE MOST METAL EVER"!! Epic scene. And you single handily introduced an entire generation to one of the most metal bands of all time. And probably made them a butt load more money in the process. Rock on bro.. 🤘
black sabbath would also have been fire, at first i was disappointed but in the end i realized for this scene there is no better song than master of puppets
@@xanderced I don't think Sabbath would have fitted, simply because they are from the previous era than the setting. Metallca was the epitome of the average metalhead's playlist in the 80's era. Maybe if Stranger Things was set in the 70's, it would have been spot on.
@@xanderced The show has made a point of using period-appropriate music, and Master of Puppets was released about a month before this season was supposed to take place, every metalhead in America was listening to it that spring.
I love how it was their first time seeing it. You can tell by their reactions that they know they are witnessing a legendary moment in the show.
Eddie deserves a second life. He played an amazing role and I was really sad to see he didn’t make it.
Rock n roll. Between Master of Puppets and Running Up That Hill and everything in between the music was stupendous this season. Props to the Music Supervisor Nora Felder and her team!
The unique version of Separate Ways was also very cool.
Season 5 will primarily take place in Hawkins
In an interview with Collider, the Duffer Brothers confirmed that Season 5 will mostly take place in Hawkins, Indiana, where it all started.
At the end of Season 4, most of the crew who diverged out of the small town made it back in some capacity, except for Dr. Martin Brenner, who died out in the New Mexico desert at the hands of Colonel Sullivan’s men. And with the Upside Down encroaching on Hawkins in a big way, it sure seems like a major battle is in store.
I mean Brenner got mauled by an entity from another dimension but that didn't stop him from coming back before
Nah I'm just kidding, glad he's dead if im being hoenst
My money's on a multi headed dragon.
Finally brenner got what he deserved
I'm betting on season 5 being very similar to "the mist" a Stephen King flick where another dimension bursts through a "window" that scientists at a top secret military base had created. The resulting leak let in a bunch of vicious creatures into our world, primarily a small coastal town. The survivors all held up in various stores for safety, with things quickly devolving into some lord of the flies shit.
1:16 that face!!!!!! I did the same smile when the Master of Puppets starting!!!! :D
Love the series as I graduated in 1987 and love the nostalgia setting. Eddie was the first character that I could actually say "There is my peoples!"
My graduation year would have been 85, I was a metal head then (still am) I related to Eddie’s character and thought to myself we would have been best friends back in the day
Joseph really walked up, took the guitar and left 💀 he's so funny
I love that Felicia got to do this interview. And that scene just had such goosebumps breaking out all over me. I am a country chick, but also a nerd and a metal head!
Eddie would’ve made a great addition to the babysitters club with Steve
😢 his character could’ve had all these great interactions with the other characters.
He could’ve played DND with will.
Been a better big brother to Little miss ginger snaps.
Teach mike to stand up for himself.

Keep the guitar Joseph. You earned it!
I like to think that Eddie also pays homage to Cliff Burton.
Eddie was the best character introduced in the show since it began. So unbelievably sad he's gone :(
Easily one of my favorite scenes in the whole show. It was amazing
Maya Hawke's reaction is all of us😂
lol😂
The fact he knows it's probably the last performance of his life makes it so much more badass
Love these actors they are so talented
He is so different, (read: _subdued_) in comparison to the part he plays. That's some great acting! You'd never guess Eddie was actually a very quiet, very polite, somewhat softspoken British guy! It's definitely heartbreaking (to all of us, including the actor) that Eddie won't be coming back. Great character, well-acted, and what an arc!
I don't think I'm alone in this: if the Duffers actually DID want to bring him back, then insisting the character is dead, (and maybe even lying/withholding that information from Joseph) would be an amazing, "GOTCHA!" moment that I think the audience would totally be down for!
I've heard a theory going around that Eddie will be back as a henchman to whoever ends up being the big bad for S5, be it Vecna or The Mindflayer.
I studied acting and directing in college in America. A couple of my professors had produced a musical in London and worked with a bunch of British actors. One said it drives him crazy how Americans act now when they get cast in a show because they freak out, jump around, and act like pubescent teenagers. He said when a British actor gets cast they say something like, Ah, great then, cheerio, what is the call time in the morning? Then they go on about their day.
Joes first reaction “oh, yeah buddy!” Love it
Most unnecessary and painful death ever. We need to get Eddie back somehow.
@MᴀᴅMᴀx ᴛʜᴇ Dᴇᴍᴏᴅᴏɢ it is a good theory since he also has a bunch of bats tattooed on his arm from what people have pointed out and the fact that vecna and its lord are still out there. Idk about you guys but I don't see season 5 being able to finish this story without having to leave a lot of questions unanswered
@MᴀᴅMᴀx ᴛʜᴇ Dᴇᴍᴏᴅᴏɢ Shhhhh spoilers! 😁
@@j0hn117uch1ha If they’re not careful they’re definitely gonna JUMP THE SHARK.
@Zudotokimoshi I hope so! I would be crazy to see Eddie as an undead semi villan.
If S5 is set one year after S4... that would be 1987. 1987 is when Joel Schumacher brought us "The Lost Boys" the first ever movie featuring sexy vampires. A movie that featured a group of teens fighting vampires... in a town terrorized by vampires. That had an ending where the half turned vampire teen and his friends destroy the head vampire. Its a bit on the nose reference... but I have to believe the Duffers where probably huge fans and have been planning a big Lost Boys ending for their show.
Me and the wife were watching this and I saw him grab a guitar assuming he was just going to pretend he was playing it but to hear a live rendition of it actually made me smile a bit. Not many people play instruments I have been playing for 16 years and to see a fellow player on a show ripping it up just made me happy that metal and guitar playing isnt a dead art I very rarely run into a fellow player and even fewer willing to put the time into learning something as complex as this song. I heavily struggle to down pick that fast and watching dude rip it up to millions of people made me smile.
DRAWING STRANGER THINGS CHARACTERS... IT'S HERE ON THE CHANNEL. !!!
Not gonna lie, I was hooked on Eddie's character cause he reminded me of my older brother (DnD fanatic, metal headed, anime watching, gym bro) and it was such a joy to watch it with my brother and his family too! Just hearing his 10 year old son ask him "What song is that dad?" And "Who is Iron Maiden?" And just watch him swell up in nostalgia and tell him about it is exactly why I love Stranger Things!
Love that story! Sooo much great memories evoked by every episode! Cheers 🍻
Bro... The part right after he finished playing, with him and Dustin unable to believe how metal it was, and jumping like little kids... It made me tear up, gosh I'll miss him sooo much
ONE OF THE BEST AND MOST BADASS SCENES IN THE ENTIRE MOVIE HISTORY, NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT
Rewatching again just to get more Eddie. He will be missed. I've watched that guitar scene an unhealthy amount of times.
Loved his character this season. Crazy to hear him and see him in real life and the complete difference to what he portrayed in the show. Dude is a gifted actor. RIP Eddie
Maya's face of just sheer "I knew it was epic, but _DAMN_ Dude..."
This is easily the most badass scene in the show
The Upside Down was the PERFECT location for something like this
They can bring back Eddie. He died in the upside down, so there's gotta be a way to bring him back. All it takes is an uproar from the fans and the duffer brother will lift up their magical pencil and write a story.
The likelihood of Eddie coming back is pretty slim, there's only one season until series finale.
This occurred to me right away. He didn’t even necessarily die. They just left his body there.
Plus… it’s one of the most 80s tropes ever. Eddie part II!
@@chaseknight6450 Well in DND if you get killed by a bat, you come back as a vampire. Not only that, but the vampire who kills Vecna in the DND storyline had a shield with spikes, like Eddie did. Coincidence? I think not!
Ok so he's alive, come to town and get arrestet/beated to dead after 5 minut, depending who catch him first. great succes
I can’t believe there isn’t more people talking about how he just took the guitar 💀

Is the fact that the character is from DND help single it's foreshadowing? Idk. But it wouldn't be the first time they brought back a fan favorite character. Look at Hopper.
@@Airstrike_snoozed_them this would unironically ruin Eddy's character & make the show overall worse. There's nothing less satisfying in a story than undoing certain death, doubly so when it's the best conclusion to a character's story arc & development. Eddy ran away from everything his whole life & after finding something worth dying for, he finally stands up and fights. His death wasn't a defeat, it was his victory that will be cemented in his legacy until the end of time. Bringing him back from the dead would cheapen his final act and would only ruin any kind of tension in the show-- why worry if a main character dies if they can just be magically brought back on a whim?
I love Eddy as much as anybody else, but bringing him back is the actual worst thing that could happen. Let him have his moment in the story & enjoy the time you spent watching him grow.
